Lyrics:

All I have are spices

At night I start to worry

What could I ever offer?

A pretty girl find a lawyer

I want to leave life behind

I can tell I’m just your type

Slyly dangled over

You and I are certain

The only thing we’ll need is water

What we need is slowly healing

I want to leave life behind

I can tell you’re just my type

I want to leave life behind

I can tell you’re just my type

Do you think you love me? (What’s the hold up for?)

Got my arms pinned with my hands raised

Do you think you love me? (What’s the hold up for?)

With my arms up high and my hands raised

What’s the hold up for?

I dreamed of such sad violence

No rest from shallow breathing

A head so full of fire

This heart of mine is slowly healing

I want to leave life behind

I can tell you’re just my type

I want to leave life behind

I can tell you’re just my type

Do you think you love me? (What’s the hold up for?)

Got my arms pinned with my hands raised

Do you think you love me? (What’s the hold up for?)

With my arms up high and my hands raised

What’s the hold up for?
